Step into the realm of avant-garde metal with Tamás Kátai's visionary project: Thy Catafalque. For over two decades, Thy Catafalque has masterfully pioneered left-field extreme metal music.

The journey continues with Thy Catafalque's sophomore masterpiece Microcosmos, a revelation that delicately balances the dichotomy between black metal and avant-garde artistry. Originally released in 2001, this album explores structured thematic elements inspired by space and the vast cosmos. A sonic expedition that maintains the restless abrasion of tremolo-picked dyads and subtly mixed-in blast beats, while retaining the psychedelic sounding sings that flesh out Thy Catafalque's signature sound.

Now, in a momentous revival, Season of Mist proudly presents the official reissue of Microcosmos, ensuring that this groundbreaking work is preserved for posterity. Fans, both seasoned and new, can delve into the intricacies of Kátai's visionary compositions, experiencing the fusion of aggression and artistry that defines Thy Catafalque.
